planefit

A function to fit a plane to a 3D point cloud.

You are now following this Submission

Given the equation of a plane as z = a*x + b*y + c, planefit, executed as C = planefit(x,y,z), solves for the coeficients C = [a b c]. Planefit does nothing fancy, it simply sets up and lets MATLAB solve the least-squares problem to solve for the coefficients - a handy utility function.
